Restaurants near Rockefeller Center Ice Skating Rink

They were able to accommodate our group of 16, and when we needed to be out quickly to make our show, they communicated this to several servers and helped us leave on time. All the food was amazing! Perfect for large groups wanting delicious food.

Fantastic food, drinks, and service…one of the best restaurants we have been to in NYC!

The food was delicious! French onion soup is a must, perfectly melted Gruyère and a generous amount of soup. I also had the Croque Monsieur which was so filling and beautifully melted. Great ambience, attentive staff and we were not rushed. Made for an absolutely wonderful family get together. Will be back!

There were 10 of us & we had made reservations at 5 pm as we had 7 pm theater tickets. Our table was ready for us upon arrival & our waiter was friendly & on point from start to finish. Service was great without feeling rushed & his wine suggestion was perfect. The portions are huge so we started with the calamari & Caesar salad which was plenty for all of us & both very good. We chose 4 dishes, Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Scaloppine, Rigatoni & Broccoli, & Penne alla Vodka & all were delicious. We all commnted that the Penne was the best we’d had as the sauce was not too heavy & perfectly spiced. Although we could have only ordered 3 dishes, we all enjoyed the variety of the 4 choices. We finished off with cappuccinos for the table & made it to the theater with 15 minutes to spare. We couldn’t have picked a better restaurant & the bonus was it was very reasonable. Great job Carmine’s!!

We were one hour early for our lunch reservation. The hostess apologized and said they did not have any inside tables and would we mind dining in their enclosed patio??!! Needless to say, I was thrilled because it overlooks the Rock Center Christmas Tree!!! We had the best table in the house. I wish I knew our waiter's name because he was excellent, as were our entrees and wine. We have been here many times over the years for good comfort food and beverages, but this time offered the best view of the tree ever! Merry Christmas!
